The silver G7th Performance 2 Capo for Steel String Guitar clamps to the neck of your guitar, raising the pitch while allowing you to play the chord fingerings that are most comfortable for you. This capo features a squeeze-on, squeeze-off design that allows you to move the capo around the fretboard with one hand quickly and easily, exerting just enough pressure to clamp the strings, but not enough to pull your guitar out of tune.

The Performance 2 Capo is 25% smaller and 33% lighter than the original Performance Capo. This makes the capo less noticeable when you're playing, so you can simply focus on your music.

Outstanding!Such an elegant design and simple solution to a common problem. Not all guitar necks and profiles are the same. Standard spring clamp capos will apply different levels of pressure depending on the profile of the neck. In my case it was even crushing the string winding and denting the frets! This capo has solved that problem with style. It applies the amount of pressure I choose, has zero buzz and best of all no string or fret damage. Perfect!

An absolute MUST-HAVE.The G7th Performance 2 is the gold standard in guitar capos. The ease of use and the way it works make it what it is. Add to that the flashy gold finish and it's ready for the stage. No fumbling around with elastic, springs, thumb screws, latches, etc. Just pop it on and squeeze. Done! The inert rubber protects the neck from dents, dings, and finish damage. The perfect capo!

I've bought my last capo.An excellent capo, This device only needs to do two things: apply even pressure to the strings at any given fret, and stay out of the way doing it. This one does both with ease. The mechanism is easy to use and allows you to apply a much pressure as is needed. Make sure you get the right model for your guitar; it comes in sizes for all styles. Highly recommended.

Great PriceI was surprised to see B&H Photo & Video carrying this item, but was happy that they were. And it was cheaper than the majority of music stores! The shipment was out the same day as I ordered it! Great case at a great price from a great store!

The ultimate guitar capoI perform with an electric- acoustic guitar whilst having to manage backing tracks via an iPhone app. With the G7th capo I have finally found a device that allows easy and accurate one-handed operation. This is a brilliant invention!

Best purchase I have ever made.This is the first Capo I have found to work with electric guitar. Most of the time with the other Capo's I was using I would have to retune everytime I put them on. Other than a little hard to to loosen, this is the best.

Would buy again. Best priceWorks well, met my expectations. Easy to release and move to other frets or above the nut. Seat it close to the fret and squeeze with some pressure to avoid fret buzz. It's unobtrusive, less in the way than other capos

Works as expectedI was using a Kyser capo for 10+ years.� The glue that keeps the rubber wore off and the rubber piece fell off.� The new G7 is pricier and it takes a little longer to put on the guitar, but it holds bar chords well.
